There's more to resolving an image then the area of the tube face being used. This also applies to 1:1 pixel mapping.


Really, and what else would that be?

help me out here, since the discussion started indicating that the mentioned resolution sent from a blend proccesor into two CRT projectors would properly resolve the full 1920x1080 content.


Not interested in explaining it to you. My post was for everyone else.

And that would mean like I've already said, that blended setup should easily blow away any single CRT setup when it comes to resolution, especially the very higher resolutions like 1920x1080P 72hz...

It should waltz around a single CRT. and when that happens, the image should be super sharp with absolutely ever substance, nuance, lines, dot, pixel, etc far exceeding anything you'll ever get to see happen when compared to a single CRT projectors that's running more of less twice the bandwidth of the blend - right?


Don't know about all the hyperbole, but; Yes, a properly setup blend of two EM 8" projectors with HD programming material will produce a higher overall quality picture than any 9" projector.

Wow, those are powerful words there. I take it you're willing to prove that statement since you have two properly setup EM 8" projectors.


let me know when you're ready..

I don't need to - I already know.

One of us is pitching mods, and I think it is you. You need to deliver the goods that you asked me to "not go anywhere" so I don't miss them.

Oh, and BTW, if your pq is as good as you claim it is, I suggest you hire someone to do screenshots for you.

Oh, I got it now.

I made that happen, and acording to the person it was turned over to, it worked very well. I still have the screenshots he sents me showing how well his NEC XG resolved 1080P.

Everything about this happened as promised. It was a DIY mod that was turned over to someone else to distribute or make happen. So I did my part, made it clear what i was doing and who it was turned over to.

So no, I did not ditch anything. I made it happen for sure and turned it over to someone else as agreed. And did so not looking for or expecting a dime.

Sweet!!!! Proper color calibration and I too like avatar with the the tops and bottom croped for scope instead of 1.78.

Did you do the 1/3 , 2/3 crop method or go 50/50 top and bottom?

Just thought I would share a few shots (screenshots) from what I did today.



These are showing what it looked like before working on the blend zone and colors. The screen is about 30' wide. It is a rear projector Stewart glass screen. The projectors are digital. I'll show the blender/processor later.

You would think that's easy to do geometry on digital blends, when it takes about thre times the effort of CRT. CRT requires geometry over the entire image, while digital only require geometry to the edge that's being used in the blending. CRT is very easy to match the edges, with digital requiring special mirrors and projector mounts, that could have about 30 adjustments between the mount and the screen. Each is very important to the edge. I usually spend a few days on a setup likes this just to do the geometry. this particular setup only required a tweaking, so I was not there long.



These are before shots.

After shots

The two images are placed evenly over each of the two blend zone. For got to mention that there's three projectors behind the screen.
